John Day, HCPC

John Day is a UK-based therapist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), bringing five years of professional experience to his practice. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, and depression, and he also supports clients through trauma, grief, anger, and challenges linked to life changes. John approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, adapting conversations and treatment plans to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual.

He emphasises a collaborative relationship in which the client’s priorities guide the work, and he helps clients identify practical strategies alongside deeper exploration of emotions and patterns that affect their daily life. John recognises that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life takes courage, and he positions himself as a steady, supportive presence throughout that process. He is comfortable working with people facing a wide range of concerns and adapts his methods to fit the situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.

Available to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally, John combines clinical training and direct experience to offer tailored care aimed at helping people feel more capable, connected, and purposeful.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

John often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them, and to clarify personal values that guide meaningful action. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and persistent negative thinking. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them through practical exercises - an approach commonly used for anxiety, depression, and mood challenges. Attachment-Based Therapy is another part of his toolkit, exploring how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses, which can support work on intimacy, relationship conflicts, and feelings of abandonment.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. John will work with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts strategies over time as progress and circumstances change. This shared decision-making helps ensure therapy feels relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging allow people to access registered professionals from home, work, or while travelling. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain continuity of care across locations, while supporting a consistent therapeutic relationship.
